I was truly amazed to see these photos in the video, because I have never seen them before. I wish I could go back in time and give this group so much more appreciation than I did back when. Who knew how much their music would mean to us all these years later. I think you would have to search long and hard to find two women, even today, who could sing like these ABBA ladies. It is so charming to see them so young again in this video. Thanks for a great job of putting this together, Aleq.
Just spent 2 weeks with Swedish friends near Stockholm. Beautiful country, Beautiful people. Back in in San Diego listening to ABBA, missing our friends.
"I was an impossible case" always moved me, even as a child. Such genius music, such genius lyrics. They really will be looked at the way we look at Mozart and Beethoven in a 100 years to come.
the best of all times when one considers the number of songs, the mix of music and the number of hits, and the endurance of the music. Thank you ABBA, well done, thanks for all of the love!!!!!
Regis possino, you forgot number of records, CDs, etc, sold worldwide. Over 500 million and counting, I believe no one; solo or group has that many sold! Plus, SOS, the best pop song ever written.
This is a very good job. Thanks for doing all this work. Can anyone else tell me any group or individual that can produce such a "tight" arrangement. KS
@MermaidBlueFins Glad you had the opportunity to have such a great song for your formal. Things will go on, and it is important to realize it is all still the same, like a life 64.O program, in my case. This is a very hard, hard song to sing for two of my friends, both accomplished singers who have said that the combining of their voices in that pitch is something that is remarkable. Still one of my favorites of all time. Thanks for your comments, Joseph
Abba had incredible harmony but Thom Bell (Producer of the 70's hits 'Becha' by golly wow", "You are everything","Didn't I blow your mind","Stone in love with you",Stop,look,listen to your heart",Could it be I'm falling in love",One of a kind ,love affair" and "Ill be around" from the 70's arrangement was the best arranger of that era in my opinion. The Stylistics debut LP stands as my all-time favorite R&B Album.It has not one bad song at all and Thom Bell produced almost the entire LP.
Very nice upload all the way around! Thanks! The sound is awesome, much better than some people's who claim HD...Of course, it could be my $300 headphones, after all, if you really want to get into the music, you have to spend. I am not rich by any means, and I afford myself very few luxuries, but I love music and I will eat mac and cheese for a monthy so I can buy nice headphones!
@JonBenet6 Hi, Thanks for your comment. Congratulations, you are the very first person to use the word formulaic in a sentence in reply to one of my thousands of comments. Alas, you are correct, ie: So Long, Waterloo, just for couple. If you like tight lyrics that are presented outside the formulaic construct, you may enjoy ABBA'a "On and On and On." That is one of my favorites because of the tightness. The version from the Dick Cavett show is really good. Hope you like it! Joseph F PDX
If you're saying ABBA is the best group of all time, you're high. There is no accounting for taste, therefore album sales can be misleading. I think Bennie and Bjorn should get more credit for their arranging. The girl's vocals are always spot on, but it's the overdubbing that catches the ear. It would have been nice to hear them live without all the production effects (unplugged, I mean). That said, the intro to "Take a Chance" is always awesome to hear.
Not to disparage the GREAT Freddie, or queen, and certainly the "The Who, but what I mean by tight, is meaning to keep the vocals, in tune with the backing track. I've been around 61 years, as a lyricist, if you will. Besides the fact, they are three different kinds of music. Sorry, but I stick to my comment. And you stick to yours. And "Bohemian Rhapsody" is one of the best of all time. Let me know when the two combined groups sell sell over 800 million albums and CD's . KS
ABBA did a brilliant job in recording "The Name Of The Game" from 1977 ... and with the lyrics in the video. Need I Say More? Well Done!! A Solid 6!!

I love the way both Agnetha and Anni-Frid's voices sound together in this song. Beautiful! ABBA Forever! =D

Try listening to Dick Cavett/ ABBA. that is all live, I believe with the backing instrumentals in the background. It's worth a look.

The best way to get lyrics is from the ABBA official website. They are all there, in a place marked lyrics, in black and white, easy to read.
só quem curtio e curte sabe a delicia desse clipe
bjuuss a todos q curte
i know what you mean, i could always relate to that line too! :)
yeah, as Björn said, the song is about their psychologist, who Agnetha and Björn visited to save their marriage...
entered Billboard Dec 24, 1977
to have sung with them!

Listen to Queen's "Somebody to Love" or the Who classic "Quadrophenia".

On my album it says that it is the Mane of the game. Probably a mistake though.
